to mom showed me how to make the perfect roast beef, and I mean PERFECT! I love my roast
13 500. and this is how I do it. If you like really rare bake for 13 mins. at 500.
18 500. like your roast beef cooked medium, put in for 18 mins. at 500. If you like it well
done, then just burn the darn thing LOL. What's nice about this roast is, if someone likes
it done a little more, please keep in mind that the end pieces will be done a little more.
4 in mind this cooking time is for a 4 lb. roast only, so adjust your time in the oven
to to the size of your roast!
